The supplication of Yunus (peace be upon him)

لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ سُبْحَانَكَ إِنِّي كُنْتُ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ

La ilaha illa anta subhanaka inni kuntu mina-z-zalimin

There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers.

Plain text (no diacritics)

لا إله إلا أنت سبحانك إني كنت من الظالمين

Source: Qur'an 21:87

Virtue: No Muslim ever supplicates with it for anything but that Allah answers him.

When is it said?

A supplication made by one of the Prophets of Allah. It has no appointed time and may be said in any state — and most fittingly in a situation resembling the one it was said in.
